快到圣誕節(jié)了
It's Soon to be Christmas
圣誕節(jié)就要來了,這個(gè)節(jié)日雖然最早是為了慶祝耶穌誕生而設(shè)定的節(jié)日,但是到現(xiàn)在,圣誕的意義早已不僅僅局限于它的宗教屬性。
圣誕節(jié),有很多傳統(tǒng)的習(xí)俗和傳說,比如裝點(diǎn)圣誕樹,比如圣誕老人送禮物。
今天分享一首小詩。
這首詩將圣誕的習(xí)俗和傳說描述得十分溫馨,
讓人們?cè)诳赐赀@首詩后,更是對(duì)圣誕節(jié)充滿滿滿的期待。
It’s soon to be that time of year
when carols are sung for all to hear,
when mince pies are eaten and stories are told,
and we all come together, young and old.
很快就要到每年的那個(gè)時(shí)候了
當(dāng)頌歌被唱給所有人聽的時(shí)候,
當(dāng)人們吃餡餅,講故事的時(shí)候,
我們老老少都聚在一起。
It's soon to be that special day,
when Santa flies high in his sleigh,
and puts our gifts under the tree,
lots for you and loads for me!
很快就要到那個(gè)特別的日子了,
當(dāng)圣誕老人駕著雪橇高飛,
把我們的禮物放在樹下,
你有很多,我有很多!
It’s soon to be here and I can't wait,
we must begin to decorate!
A ribbon here and a bauble there,
wrap the presents, there’s lots to prepare!
很快就到了,我等不及了,
我們必須開始裝飾!
這里是一條緞帶,那里是個(gè)裝飾品,
把禮物包起來,還有很多要準(zhǔn)備的!
But when it’s done we'll all sit down,
and by the fire we'll gather round.
We'll hang our stockings and wish for snow,
then off to bed we'll swiftly go.
但當(dāng)一切都結(jié)束了,我們都會(huì)坐下來,
我們?cè)诨鹋跃奂?/p>
我們會(huì)掛上襪子,期盼下雪,
然后上床睡覺,我們那樣迅速。
I'll close my eyes and fall asleep fast,
and when I wake up, it'll be Christmas at last.
我會(huì)閉上眼睛快速入睡,
當(dāng)我醒來的時(shí)候,終于是圣誕節(jié)了。
